A boolean block that scans if a thing has atleast 1 thing that is in a list.

_RareScratch_

Hi. My 2nd suggestion! Today i would love if you added this block.

list contains atleast [1 v] thing/s in [list v] ?

Here is why.
1. It would be useful to have this, since it compresses a huge script into 1 simple thing
2. Having this block could also save over 50+ operating blocks if the length is over 25. Here is a example.
Before:

when green flag clicked
add [a] to [before v]
add [b] to [before v]
say (<(before) contains [b] ?> and <(before) contains [a] ?>) for (2) secs

After (with the suggestion):

when green flag clicked
add [a] to [after v]
add [b] to [after v]
list contains atleast [2 v] thing/s in [after v] ?

Those are the 2 reasons why.

It will be located inbetween:

<[list v] contains [thing] ?>

and

show list [list v]

Both of these blocks have the suggestion block im talking about inbetween those. It would formerly be closest to

<[letters v] contains [thing]?>

too for a idea.

That is all I can describe about the block. Have a nice time!

What about

<not<(length of [list v] :: list) < (min :: grey)>>

_RareScratch_

<not<(length of [list v] :: list) < (min :: grey)>>

A bit too complicated.
Make a bigger version of it and more understandable please.

If you want to know if a list has at least a certain length, then that's your easy workaround.

I think you should correct it…

<list contains at least () things in [after v] ?:: list>

Also, these are not called “booleans,” they are called “predicates,” if you know what I mean.

Anyways, support!

But if you want to check if something has at least a certain item number, just use the length and compare!

I think you wanted a signature, the thing people have under their posts. To have one, go to Discussion Home and scroll down until you see “Change your signature” click it, write your signature and press “Submit”. Bam.

Signatures are seen under a light gray line on every post you make, like under this line V

i was thinking about a variation of this earlier: a boolean that detects how many of a certain item is in a list!

anyways, your Og suggestion, no support, but a variation could work.

Maybe

<[List v] contains [((thing) * (2))] ?>

Might work.

I'm not sure if I did the forum blocks right though.

Just delete the ] and [. No, that won't work.

Replace the “(thing) * (2))” with an operator.

We didn't really need that. And I just tried it and you guys were right. It doesn't work.

<[list v] contains ((5) * (2)) ?> //is the same as
<[list  v] contains [10] ?>

Support. this would be very useful for a crafting code that i'm working on and most of the recipes require multiple of a single item.

Ah thats fine.
I thought of it myself and didn't see your idea!
Also, there aren't any kumquats near so you don't need guards right? xD
If your the original then support. I just made it up without using any others. Well I didn't see anything similar to this so I did it!

Ah well. Have a nice day!

Btw how to make coloured text?

I call them booleans. Its much more complicated if I called then predicates.
And, its my grammar that I call them booleans, you mostly have a better structure of words.
Have a nice day.

when green flag clicked
set pen color to [#fff43e]
go to x: (a list of actions to draw have a nice day X) y: (a list of actions to draw have a nice day Y)

The pen block color is fff43e.

I didn't mean it like that. Not in numbers. But in text. You make a variable called “thing”. It didn't work anyway, But if it did it would be thing * 2 = thing thing.

HTML-Fan

Rather thingthing. I think that that's a thing in python.
